Dancer in a Red Skirt, No. 2

Robert Henri

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person in standing position, leaning slightly with one leg crossed in front of the other. The arms are crossed over the waist, with hands resting near a held pink garment. The person's face is turned upward, partially obscured by long, dark hair falling over the shoulders. The facial features are softly delineated. The individual has an exposed upper torso and a pink garment wrapped around the waist, flowing down to the knees. No jewelry or additional objects are present. The background is plain.
